Not “Days of or Lives” , but “The Young and the Restless”. Did she really leave because of me? I don’t really know, but it would be really pathetic if she did. . She’s now cause over life? Which life would that be? Certainly not the one she was in the moment I told her that I had left the church because of Miscavige;’s corruption, and she was instantly transformed from Dr. Jekyll into Ms. Hyde – seemed somewhat reactive to me. Oh wait, she wasn’t a VII completion then, but still working her way through the level, and under the influence. My bad. In any event. she’s a terrific actress and I wish her the best, along with a realization of the truth.

Thanks Michael. Sorry for mixing up the shows…. Someone sent me a copy of a private FB message Michelle put out when she quit. I didn’t post is as it was a (sort of) private message (not really any such thing on FB) and it made clear that she left the show because of you. She had done nothing to offend me or anyone else so I did nothing with the information. Now I see her shilling for the IAS I figured I might as well comment on the information that had earlier been forwarded to me. Hope you are well, and I wish Michelle well too….

I know who Michael is, no clue who she is, but I am always glad to hear of another unemployed scno, so that less money will go into the endless pit of scno/co$/dm. Maybe she will open her eyes, when she starts getting treated like shit, perhaps because of having less money and tv face time. I doubt she will start questioning where Shelly has gotten to, but that is not the only reason Hollywood scnos end up in the co$/dm shit can. Stories like this are starting to create their own backlash. And little 'midg' gets pissed . . . .

I find it odd, damned near unique, that a soap opera actress would quit a soap opera job. She will probably never get another role.

And dear God, I pray that COB and other cult predators are profoundly humiliated in a way we can all laugh at and give each other high-fives about—after which someone takes us all out for lots of ice cream and then we all go home and get to stay up really late and watch cartoons.

Roger Friedman has picked up on the story.

EXCLUSIVE: You’ve got to hand it to the friends of Xenu: they are a clubby bunch. Earlier this summer Michelle Stafford, a top celeb Scientologist, left her Emmy winning role on CBS’ “The Young and the Restless” after 16 years. No one knows why exactly. Stafford told the soap opera press she was “done.” Her role will likely be recast.

So what did Stafford leave for? To make a YouTube series with her Scientology pals. “The Stafford Project” so far is just two episodes, each around 9 minutes long. The “project” is a reality series in small installments, all about Stafford’s so called real life as a single mom of a baby delivered by surrogate.

But what “The Stafford Project” hasn’t addressed yet is that everyone involved in it is a Scientologist. No less than two of them actresses named Paige– Goodman and Long. They are all well versed students of L. Ron Hubbard. They write and produce the show with Stafford. Goodman (then called Paige Dorian) was ex-member Lisa Presley’s assistant and minder for eight years according to reports.

So far all the male actors are members of the cult, too– Sevier Crespo and Robert Filios, as well as actor Eric Matheny.

And they’re not alone. The composer of music for “The Stafford Project,” Holly Palmer, has a long list of Scientology courses under her own at www.truthaboutscientology.com

Ex-Scientologist and vocal critic Mike Rinder has an interesting take on Stafford’s peculiar exit from “The Young and the Restless.” He says it’s because Stafford would not work on the same show as another ex-cult member, actor Michael Fairman, who plays the recurring character of Murphy. http://www.mikerindersblog.org/voldemort-19-july/

Fairman left Scientology in the last couple of years because he didn’t agree with David Miscavige’s controversial leadership. “Y&R” also boasts at least one other Scientologist in its cast– Sharon Case, a milquetoast actress who’s been taking courses since 1986. Her character, also named Sharon, was recently diagonosed with bi-polar disorder in order to explain her sociopathic behavior.

Didn't she leave the show once before, with a few years of unemployment. I wonder if she saved any money this time around. I recall hearing she was begging the producers to take her back when her leap to movie stardom fell flat.

Michelle's new project is intended to show her comedic side. I doubt she quit 'The Young & The Restless' over Michael Fairman being on the same show. Michelle was a star on the show & appeared every day; Michael was an in-frequent co-star.

I suspect Michelle wants to showcase her comedic talents that she hopes will attract the attention of network executives & it will proper her into primetime comedic TV roles, which is ALOT more lucrative than soap operas. Soap operas consists of 2 types of actors; (1) actors who want to showcase their talents & move on to more promising & lucrative roles in TV & film; and, actors that are happy to have long-lasting, paid acting gig.

The downside of being on a soap opera for a long time is that actors are typecasted. I suspect Michelle will run into this, and it won't be long before she's begging soap opera execs to re-hire her.

Yeah, I couldn't get past 5 minutes... even doing stuff on other websites in the background. I might be prejudiced, because I had already had fantasies of impaling myself on any near sharp object watching her horrific spin in "Tone 40 Assessment". "Do you dive?" Frak.... watching that somewhat hot dude dive into the pool was the only joy afforded during those endless days of trying to comp Pro Metering. So....NOT...MY....TYPE...., but, hell, it was a break from courseroom bullshit.
